Abstract
Extrarenal Wilms' tumor is extremely rare. To our knowledge, only 22 cases had been reported up to 1984. We treated a 5-year-old girl with an extrarenal Wilms' tumor arising in the right inguinal region. Total excision was performed. Abdominal sonogram, computed tomography (CT) scan, and intravenous pyelogram (IVP) showed normal kidneys, no other mass, and no evidence of metastasis. Postoperative chemotherapy was administered. The patient has been disease-free since first diagnosis 19 months ago.
